My AIS data volume is used up, and no AIS store nearby. What to do?

honestly you can just dial 777 then a code from the AIS website to buy a data pack straight from your balance. if u have zero balance tho, most mom and pop shops on any soi sell AIS top-up for like 50 baht, just ask for "ais thai top-up" at the counter. also the AIS app lets u buy with credit card if u have wifi somewhere

if u can get to any bts station, the ticket booths usually sell ais top-up too. or just hop on any wifi at a cafe or mcdonald's and use the ais app to buy a data pack with a card, it's instant. also some family mart locations have the machines where u can top-up with cash

Just hit up 7-Eleven, most of them sell AIS top-up cards and data add-ons at the counter

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
